Offer Upgrade  User ID: 14991947  United States08/14/2015 12:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | C'mon, we know it's all going to happen. Just make a living will, peeps. Once you get past a certain point you just aren't able to do it anymore, no matter how bad you feel or how bad you are in pain. Don't force the people you think you are living for to suffer watching you deteriorate while you can't express your wishes anymore. Honestly, after what I have dealt with, I would go Kevorkian on this...just tie a plastic bag over my head after a night getting wasted on GLP Chat. Anywho, hope you all have some living wills, and real wills..the only thing certain in life is death and taxes. Prepare.

If you don't understand that, folks, then it's beyond my capability to explain it to you. They will get away with whatever you let them get away with. And until you draw the line and you're willing to die for what you believe in, they will keep taking and taking and taking and taking, until there is no more left to take. Then, it's all gone, and you're a slave." -bill cooper |

(OP) User ID: 14991947 United States08/14/2015 01:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I could not agree more. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1626233 We just went through it. Everyone should prepare. I'm going through a nightmare with it right now. $3650/mo for care. In hospice. OMG I would never put my kids through this. Three thousand six hundred fifty and no/100 on each check...pretty hard to even write there. Rapid decline, all directives. Seems kinda selfish to me, but it's not my life.

User ID: 22054163 United States08/14/2015 01:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If I am faced with it being my end then it is my end, but I will not load debt on others, for any small amount of time to be added to my end. I would rather die and they be able to survive until their end comes unto them. I want them to survive while they live and are able to live. No hospital no resuscitation. No burial I elected cremation. The most precious things are the simple things in life, always present in the simplest of minds. |

(OP) User ID: 14991947 United States08/14/2015 01:32 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There is no way what so ever I would allow a debt to be put on my family. Quoting: Wondering Mind If I am faced with it being my end then it is my end, but I will not load debt on others, for any small amount of time to be added to my end. I would rather die and they be able to survive until their end comes unto them. I want them to survive while they live and are able to live. No hospital no resuscitation. No burial I elected cremation. And I would love to leave something to my children, if they want it or not. I have wanted this land since my father worked his ass off to get us here. Had to hire a shady lawyer to secure the land in a trust. My mother just never anticipated all of this....and honestly she didn't care. Dealing with that is one thing and dealing with family is another. [Your rights are] "wherever we're willing to draw a line and say 'you cannot come across this line or I'll kill you.'

Seriously when I'm done, and I have MS so who knows, I am taking myself out with a fifth of jack and a bag on my head.

I feel you man. Not doing so well myself and like Charles Bukowski said (decades ago!) it's cheaper to die than to go to a hospital. Sickening. I saw what you are paying for the hospice care and that's insane! |

No offense to you Calx, never, but thank god mom had some funds of some kind...if not she would be in a horrible, horrible state place. The process of taking over her finances was a game of cat and mouse, and I would never do that to my kids, nor would I not have a clear plan...we never know when we will check out.

| Chills User ID: 68939240 United States08/14/2015 02:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My brother and I are dealing with this with a parent and a grandparent right now. He has court in a couple weeks due to badly planned/prepared power of attorneys on one. The other, has a family member who just wants out of it, but also doesn't want to give up the power. It's crazy.... The tattoo idea is a good one. |

Feel free to PM me if you need any help..you too calx...I have been thinking I need to make a consulting company for ppl that are too young to know how to deal with it or otherwise. I'm really willing to not let anyone else to struggle through this like I did. PM me if you're dealing with it and I will talk to you and let you know what I know, including land, property, etc. [Your rights are] "wherever we're willing to draw a line and say 'you cannot come across this line or I'll kill you.'
